ONEPlantTM – An Integrated Plant Operations Framework for Pharmaceutical Manufacturing Excellence
Cognizant’s ONEPlantTM solution makes end-to-end, integrated plant operations a reality.Complexity of the Pharma Manufacturing Environment
The pharmaceutical (pharma) industry is experiencing a tectonic shift. Its current environment is being
challenged by intense scrutiny on price hikes, regulatory uncertainty, empowered patients, personalized
medicine, infl ux of tech giants, patent cliffs, and the associated rise in generics.
These forces are pushing pharma companies to increase spending on specialty drugs, broaden their
R&D strategies, create bigger mergers and acquisitions, and adopt a data-driven approach towards
quality and regulatory compliance. Consequently, introducing high-performance products, faster than
ever with industry leading quality and optimized price points is a constant challenge.
As a result, these tremendous pressures are increasing margins. For example, acquiring and merging
new companies for new capabilities is a complex undertaking, usually involving disconnected legacy
systems, disparate technologies, and a lack of process standardization from one plant to the next. Even
if individual plants or business units have adopted the latest technologies and created unifi ed processes,
very few have integrated the manufacturing value chain end-to-end to achieve operational effi ciencies
and increased collaboration.
Thus, as pharma companies need to fi nd innovative ways to cut costs, manufacturing operations
naturally becomes a key area for optimization. With an eye on effi ciency, pharma manufacturers need
to adopt a comprehensive approach to transform plant operations for more in-grained agility,
predictability, and responsiveness. Cognizant’s unique framework addresses today’s challenges,
enabling you to rewire operations and help change the way manufacturing is done.
COGNIZANT ONEPLANTTM
Unifi ed. Quality Driven. Consistency.
Cognizant’s ONEPlant solution is a unifi ed approach to achieve a truly integrated manufacturing
operation, aligning people, process, compliance, and technology towards one common vision and
goal. Our team harmonizes the operations management and operations technology components to
align with core ERP systems, and supply chain solutions.
Our maturity framework guides leading manufacturers in designing an operations transformation
journey and helps address pain points across plants. Digital accelerators help integrate manufacturing
data with multiple business systems already in place and address GxP requirements.
The framework guides how and where to effectively and effi ciently adhere to compliance and quality
standards in the manufacturing environment. The solution aids in automating electronic batch record
(EBR) and traceability, to create a collaborative workfl ow for the pharma manufacturer to establish a
paperless shop-fl oor operation in a GxP environment.
ONEPlant can also address pharmaceutical drug serialization—with an approach to quickly deploying
a serialization solution across multiple sites or packaging lines in parallel for consistency and
compliance.
Getting Started — Vision toward Manufacturing Excellence
Our business and technology advisory services for pharma manufacturing encompass: maturity
assessments, blueprinting, product evaluations, roadmap defi nition for global implementations, and
ongoing support.
In working with leading global manufacturers, Cognizant recognizes that operational maturity levels
vary by company. In order to best understand where your operation stands, we recommend starting
with our ONEPlant Maturity Framework. This structured approach, aided by our proprietary tools
and templates for maturity assessment, will articulate and benchmark the current state of operations
across all areas.
From there, we can identify opportunities for improvement and better defi ne the transformation
roadmap with a cost benefi t analysis.
The components of ONEPlant are augmented by Cognizant’s Quality Management solutions (QMS)
which drive a progression away from “Quality as a Department” to “Quality as a Responsibility.”
